works by replacing standard Python functions from the sys module (e.g. settrace) which are 
essential for debugging.&nbsp; Even if you run a Pscyco script without debugging it still messes up the 
internal interpreter for good and you will no longer be able to debug other scripts (you have to 
restart PyScripter).&nbsp; You can run such scripts externally or else you need to comment out Psyco 
related stuff.&nbsp; </span></font></div>
